Ashley Burrows

Coach: Ashley Burrows

Ashley is an RRCA Level 1 certified running coach, wellness enthusiast, and mom of three. She started running consistently in 2023 to train for the St. Michaels Half Marathon, and what began as a personal challenge quickly turned into a passion. Since then, she’s completed races ranging from 5Ks to full marathons, and along the way, she’s discovered a running community that feels like home.

Ashley loves that running brings people of all ages and backgrounds together. She’s passionate about helping others find the same joy, confidence, and connection she’s discovered through the sport. Her coaching focuses on consistency, balance, and mindset—helping runners build not only physical strength but also a lifelong love of running.

When she’s not coaching or out on a run, you’ll find her cheering on her kids at their games, spending time on the water, or working in national security.

Description

Welcome to our Annapolis 5K/10K Training program. Whether you are a walker looking to take your first running steps or an experienced 5Ker or 10Ker looking to improve your speed, there is a place in our training group for you! At Charm City Run we have no shortage of fun and varied 5Ks and 10Ks in which to participate. Our Annapolis coaches are ready to get you past the finish line.

You will meet twice a week for supported group runs with your fellow runners and coach — once for a speed, hill or interval workout and once for a distance run in addition to following a weekly training plan. Weekly emails will outline your plans for the days you don’t meet and allow you to follow along on your own.

No running experience is necessary! Runners, walkers, and run/walkers of all levels are welcome!
